Abstract

This paper reports effects of electrostatic interaction between amino acid and gold colloid on the intensity of surface-enhanced raman scattering (SERS). Near-infrared (NIR) excited SERS has been measured for lysine (Lys) on gold colloid at pH 10.8 and 12.0 where its ε-amino group is ionized and both the α- and ε-amino groups are neutralized, respectively. Note that the SERS intensity changes dramatically with pH. This result suggests that the electrostatic interaction between the positive charge of the ε-NH₃⁺ group and the negative charge of the gold surface is one of the most important factors that determine the intensities of the SERS signals.
